Having Bitcoin really does give a great sense of security. If there is an emergency, financially, its not an issue. And being in a position to help friends and family when they need it most is a great feeling. I bet your daughter was over the moon and extremely grateful. โ
Michael Saylor's never sell your bitcoin, is a good mantra. I always interpreted it as, you only sell if you really have to and dont sell it to fund crap you dont need. And always try to lraverage first. So if Im tempted to buy an expensive watch for 5k, I ask myself would I be willing to pay 500k for it? Because this is how much 5k worth of bitcoin today will be worth in the future. I usually decide to not be tempted to spend on empty things. Its short term joy that doesnt last very long.
As for Strategy announcing we may need to sell bitcoin, I dont think its anything to worry about. They are literally eating up the bitcoin supply like a monster. If they sell, then I think they have earned the right to sell some. ๐
